Or it could mean that Roy made a tit of himself, and not for the first
time, and is spouting nonsense as usual.
Here is some info about Jeff:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_Waugh
Roy, on the other hand, is a full time student with approximately zero
credibility in the OSS world. His one attempt at producing an OSS
project failed miserably - the beards did not flock to his side and
create his vision.
http://www.iuron.com
Roy has no idea how the real world operates. It is why no one listens to
Roy and why he is so universally laughed at in Digg. He brings it on
himself.
And you constantly shilling his posts does nothing for his cause since
you are in more killfiles than all of FlatFish's supposed nyms combined.
